Hello!

I have a problem, I can not accesss to some of my files. The comp. tell's me that they are already in use. I use Xp proffesional, for antivirus BIT defender and Zone alarm.

And by what program are they in use? What files are you referring to?I have on i disk on root 3 avi files, whic are now lock and 1 dir of 7.

If I am log on my name a can access the dir but if I am log on another user I can not even access the dir contents. There are files zip, rar iso, bin, cue txt, pdf.

When I open the avi file in Media explorer, the ERROR is reportet in whic is saying that the file is used by another program. I can not find that another program.

I scaned for viruses by bit defender and ZA, but nothing., I log in in safe mode---- it is the same.Zone Alarm is not a virus scanner. - Does it ask you to let through certain connections originating from files you never heard of/donot trust?

Scan for spyware as well.

I've heard of Bit Defender before, but I THINK the name's dodgy. I'd get a proper virus scanner if I were you.
